Coolest Show - Rex the Runt

Last week I found another hilarious show on Amazon. It is called Rex the Runt and it originally aired from 1998 to 2001in the UK.

The four main characters are plasticine dogs: Rex, Bad Bob, Wendy, and my favorite, Vince.  Rex, the character who has the same name as the show seems to be the only ''normal'' one.  Bad Bob, is over weight and wears an eye patch that he does not need. He also enjoys carrying a gun the size of himself.  Wendy, always has a bow in her ''hair'' and is the sarcastic and serious one. Then there is Vince, the not very smart ''pet'' who has random Pavarotti disease.  That means he sings bits of opera or says words such as ''jam'' or ''trousers'' at unpredictable times.

The show is made by Aardaman, the animation studio who made Wallace and Gromit. So, of course it is in claymation.  I don't think the show is meant for little kids but kids eight and up will love it.  I love the cute characters. The show is crazy and you never know whats going to happen next.

TUESDAY!

Doctor Who - Gadgets

I should probably tell you what Doctor Who is. He is an alien from Galifrey who travels through time and space.  He has fantastic gadgets. There is a sonic screwdriver ,that opens metal doors - but not wood.    A nano recorder which records sounds onto your hand.  His T.A.R.D.I.S (time and relative dimensions in space) is his spaceship/time machine.  His intellect is his best weapon. He uses it to outwit enemies and solve problems.
 There are twelve doctors, he regenerates instead of dying.  But more on that later.  
ALLONS-Y!!
